Do you ever get bug-eyed, confused or defeated when you try to keep up with the latest image dimensions for your accounts online? Do you feel bored or underwhelmed with stock Canva templates? Or, maybe you’re just not sure how to personalize those templates with your branding.

My happy place is when I get to work in Canva or Photoshop to:

  • showcase your brand colours + fonts
  • create high-resolution graphics
  • design custom “stop the scroll” post images + templates you can sell
  • create print marketing materials
  • develop workbooks + worksheets
  • optimize your Facebook cover photos & videos
    • don’t lose some of your image on mobile view!

  • automate your email workflows so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel with each promotion?

PINTEREST

Picture it, literally. What catches your eye when you’re scanning dozens of pins looking for inspiration or a specific idea? Because Pinterest is a visual experience for your customers, you’ve literally got a split second to catch their eye before they scroll past. For an entrepreneur like you, Pinterest is an awesome way to connect with and learn more about your customers and what they are looking for.  The extra sales never hurt either!

I LOVE Pinterest because your customers

  • can search your content like a visual ‘Google’ search engine, your pins don’t die out
  • may not be on social media
  • can click through to your website directly, so you can track everything
  • use it A LOT for their own collections, research and DIY ideas, so why not for your business

I can help you with:

  • fresh & scroll-stopping pin designs
  • monthly content planning with SEO titles, descriptions & tags
  • scheduling & re-pinning with Tailwind or your preferred program

EXPERTISE WITH: Tailwind

SOCIAL MEDIA: Facebook + Instagram

Do you have a love-hate relationship with social media?

There are so many social media opportunities for small businesses, but do you feel overwhelmed by the ‘pressure’ to post on every platform every day ?
Honestly, you don’t have to be everywhere – all the time! 

How many times have you posted something on Facebook or Instagram, and then kept checking your phone to see if anyone ‘liked’ or responded yet?

Scheduling your content, posts + events ahead of time can minimize your anxiety and screen time.

Check out some of the responsibilities I can take care of for you:

    • analytics on what’s working & what can be improved
    • monthly caption and content plans, uploading & scheduling
    • Facebook group moderation & administration
    • custom hashtags for each post
    • set up recurring events
    • link in Instagram bio optimization

CONTENT REPURPOSING

content-repurposing-virtual-assistant<br />

What is content repurposing?

Basically, I pull the best ideas & information from your website or online channels and reuse it in a new way. Remember the last time you stared at a blank screen, agonizing over what to write or post about. Avoid the self-doubt, writer’s block or just feeling plain old burnt out by recycling, adapting or refreshing your own stories, blogs or website information. 

As a former teacher, content repurposing and development is in my blood.

For example, I can turn your:

  • podcast into a blog
  • blog into social media posts + pins
  • YouTube videos into a guide
  • e-book into a podcast
  • resources into lead magnets

The possibilities are endless!

HOURLY RETAINERS

hourly-retainer-for-a-virtual-assistant<br />

Need help in a few areas? Not sure where to start?

No worries! You are NOT alone.

As an entrepreneur myself, I get what’s it like to have all these extra responsibilities without any help. Or, if you’re a control freak like me, it’s hard to trust another person to do as good a job as you.

Secret? I rarely took sick days off when I was teaching because of this exact worry! But, big picture: it’s super easy to get sidetracked with all this online stuff and lose focus of your true love – your business and why you started it.

I’m proud to offer different levels of assistance for all my clients, from consulting & researching to complete hands on help. Depending on what you need and what budget you’re working with, we can always work something out.

 

I set up hourly retainers, or a bank of pre-paid hours for my clients’ projects for a number of reasons:

    1. Some projects are quick and only require 5-10 hours
    2. Transparency about the amount of time a task actually takes is important for me to earn your trust
    3. Sometimes, you may need a hand with a few extra things beyond the scope of the original work contracted for. If I’m able to accommodate these extra requests, it’s a lot easier for both of us to add a few more hours to the bank rather than renegotiating an entire contract.
